Your first, and possibly most important, brand growth exercise starts here: Get a sketchbook and open it to the very first, very blank, very terrifying page and write the following: I give myself permission. Permission to open my heart. Permission to make mistakes. Permission to learn and grow and be selfish and speak loudly and explore. I commit to myself. My whole self. I will be kind to myself. I will be patient with myself.

At the top of the left column, write "I CAN'T because...", and then fill that column with all the reasons someone wouldn’t hire you or why you're not good enough.

When there are too many thoughts... or none at all... because either of those are a hard place to create and grow from. Start by sitting with a blank page and something to draw with. Draw big lines across it the page. Wavy. Straight. Intersecting. Fill the page with them. You’re not making something pretty. You’re making space. Then start writing along the lines and inside the shapes that the lines created.

Because sometimes you don’t need insight. You need release. Start by sitting with a blank page and several colors of something to draw with. And then just... scribble. Hard. Fast. Messy. Maybe even fun. Press until your hand gets tired. Let it be ugly. Let it be dramatic. This is not art. This is energy leaving your body. When those emotions stay in your head, they echo. They get louder.
